Reviews you can trust, from real people like you.
How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

My drains are out, so nice! Another thing I stressed over but it was painless! I have very little swelling, but Ive heard it could start a week or 2 post surgery.
Ive going over my mind about my bleeding episode. Infact blaming myself which I know is not healthy. So Ive finally concluded that it was just one of those rare occurances that is a risk for any surgery. Nothing done wrong on my dr.s part or mine. So I am having some closure on that and stopped beating myself up about it.
Im taking it easy at home. Can't get good sleep from the itch from face peel, but gonna take some benedryl for that tonight. Im doing light things for myself, but the heavy cleaning, laundry and family cooking leaving it to older kids and husband.
I'll try to post some before pics.

Well, everyday that passes Im feeling stronger and back to myself. The pain has been very minimal. I could've gotten away with just extra strenght tylenol if even that. It was more for security reasons that I took the prescribed pain killer. I only took it maybe 2 or 3x.
Today is the first day Im not so guarded about being hunched over. Im having to remind myself to not stand so erect. But its been 4 days so maybe it's ok.
Im also able to get down and up and sideways easier and cuddle with my kids. Thats the one thing I really miss. I have to mention that one of my twins has favored my tummy skin since infancy like a security blanket. He'd rub it to sleep or to calm down. There were times I couldnt stand it. I didnt realize how much I'd miss it!! He's actually doing quite well, once he saw the binder and drains, no questions asked. Even when it comes off with it being numb below the belly it wont be the same for me ):. The letting are children go and grow we as moms have to make. So bitter sweet!!
I hope to get my drains out this evening if not tomorrow.

Well my drains will be coming out this evening! I cant wait.
I forgot to mention he took out 350cc of fat for lipo below belly button. Scar is a little longer than a normal mini, because I had loose skin out to sides.
If it werent for that darn scar from gallbladder surgery I couldve gotten a better result with a full TT. But, oh well I'll take what I can safely get.
My bad experience with bleeding is becoming beclouded with my end results. Would do it again in a heart beat.
